Please tell me the reasons why I shouldn't, before the AV starts telling me, "life's too short, you can just have one".

(Yes, I know drinking alcoholically will shorten my life anyway.)

Traumatic events are no reason to drink. Please tell me why - remind me. Please.
You ask Tell me why a life or death experience is no reason to drink.

That's an easy question:

Because, for an alcoholic, drinking isi a life or death experience. All you have to do to find this out is to take that first drink and say to yourself, "One drink won't matter!"
